“I done matured a lot, ‘cause you know my kids is getting older,” said Juve
according to XXL. “It’s not all
about Juve no more. Me and Mannie been back in the studio [and] I had
to humble myself down…pimp down a level. I just want people to listen
to this album and realize the time behind it. Realize the amount of
years that I been around to still be doing what I’m doing and at the
caliber I’m doing it.”
As for the status of the album? “I don’t know nothing,” said Juve. “I’m just doing songs.
I’m a background player on this one. I’ma let Mannie and Atlantic call
the shots.”
